Default LF Black Krylon Fusion Paint GVRD

Following Lastlight's advice I would like to build a return manifold for my cube. The pipe should be black and tucked under the tank's (black) rim. Following his advice I will build it from white PVC and spray paint it with black Krylon Fusion paint. I only need a tiny amount (enough to cover 4 ft of pipe).

Does anyone have a can kicking around? I have umpteen cans of things drying out over the years because I only needed a small amount once. Help me save the planet guys and girls!...

If there's nobody to donate you a can, I think I paid about $4 at Canadian Tire...


Make sure you really scuff up the pipe really well. I thought I did, then had an urchin eat it all off. Well, it ate the coralline growing on the black paint, the paint just came off with it leaving a sparkling clean white pipe...
